When you ask "What number is halfway between 23 and 272?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=23 and Y=272.
To find the number halfway between 23 and 272, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 23 and 272 into our formula, we get:
(23 + 272)/2 = 147.5
Thus, the number halfway between 23 and 272 is 147.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 23 from 147.5 and subtract 147.5 from 272 and compare the two numbers:
147.5 - 23 = 124.5
272 - 147.5 = 124.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 124.5 higher than 23 and 124.5 lower than 272. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 147.5 above is correct.
